Whitney genuinely seems to want to be a part of Chris's family -- Becca's a little bit tougher to read. Anybody think that might work in her favor in the long run?
OK, we're back. Whitney is now talking to Chris's mom. Why are you in love with my son, she wondered. She said he makes her feel like the only woman in the world. "You have raised an amazing, amazing man." (I'm glad she wasn't around for the Becca conversation!)
"I lost my mom 10 years ago and I have been waiting to call someone mom and call someone dad," she said. "You make me feel [loved]. You really do." "I could take you and love you just like that," Chris's mom responded. (They're both really emotional.)
Oh wow. Whitney is confident she's the future Mrs. Soules. (Her words, not mine.) "My family just fell in love with Whitney off the bat," Chris said. However, he's still thinking about Becca. "They both have part of my heart."
"Whitney's an incredible choice and I have serious feelings about her," he said -- but now he's saying he also feelings strongly about Becca.
Chris's brother-in-law is saying that maybe Becca being harder to read is making her more attractive. He thinks Chris is 50/50.
I avoided all spoilers, but it seem s like Chris's family is pulling for Whitney. Curious to see how they react to Becca.
OK, we're back, guys. Becca's coming to Arlington, and Chris's family is excited to meet her. However, Chris's sister said she's frustrated that he doesn't have "clarity."
Relationship-wise he said he's on the same page with both of them, but he pointed out that Becca still have questions. Pros for Becca, per Chris: She's got a great sense of humor, she knows what she wants in life.
Whitney brought flowers and wine. Becca brought cookies. (Am I the only one who noticed/cares?)
"He fit right in with my family," Becca told Chris's family. "I'm so glad he got to see where I came from!"
Becca is laughing and joking with Chris's family about how small Arlington is. They're all laughing and joking -- and now she's going to sit down with Chris's sisters. "Coming into this I was like, 'I could see myself liking this guy,' and now I'm falling in love with him," she said. "I'm scared that if I'm not at a certain point that I'm supposed to be at, does this have to end? If Whitney's ready to get married and have babies... where does that leave my relationship with him?"
Becca said she wants it to be long-distance until, "I'm sure that I'm sure that I'm sure." And of course, serious music began playing. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
Chris's sister is "scared" that she's not into the idea of moving to Iowa. "She's a hard nut to crack," she said told him.
"I think you need to push her a little bit," one of his sisters said. (Am I the only one who thinks his sisters are more pro-Whitney?)
"She hasn't told me that she loves me like Whitney but I know she will," Chris said. "That's what I'm hoping for."
@MellyMel: So far, all you've missed have been the two women meeting Chris's family. Whitney declared her love for Chris and announced she felt confident that he'd choose her. Becca told his sisters she wanted to be long-distance until she was sure -- and then she'd move to Iowa. Chris's brother-in-law said he thinks Chris is 50/50.
We're back! Now Becca is talking to Chris's mom, and she's making it clear how much she loved Whitney.
"He is an amazing man," Becca told Chris's mom. "I'm still trying to figure out how he's single." "He wants something special," she responded.
Becca was "miserable" when she thought she lost Chris, she said. "That's love," Chris's mom told her. Becca's afraid that Whitney's willingness to admit her feelings will hurt her chances.
